“Call Me Maybe” singer Carly Rae Jepsen has revealed the title and release date for her highly anticipated U.S. debut album.
Kiss, Jepsen’s second studio album, drops Sept. 18 through Interscope Records and features collaborations with songwriters and producers Max Martin, Dallas Austin, LMFAO’s Redfoo, Toby Gad, Marianas Trench singer Josh Ramsay and Matthew Koma.
“These are lyric and song ideas that I have been collecting over the years,” Jepsen said in a statement. “I can’t tell you how lucky I feel to be able to collaborate with some of my dream producers. It has been the most fulfilling experience. The record is pop. It’s inspired by Robyn, The Cars, Madonna, and believe it or not, James Taylor. I can’t wait to share it with everyone! Kiss.”
The Canadian Idol alum had been teasing fans over the past week with hints to the album title.
